Nineteen years ago, outside the apartment building, the red taxi still parked in the parking space outside the guard.

In the evening, the cicadas gradually hide their calls, but the alleys outside the apartment buildings become more and more lively, people come home from work to cook, from the kitchens there is the sound of crackling pots and pans, and children also come home from school, and use the precious time before meals to turn on the TV to watch the daily cartoons.

Qi Yan sat in the driver's seat, watching the evening scene full of fireworks in front of him, and at the same time, the system sent a final warning-

【Warning! The quest logout portal will be closed after three seconds]

[If you choose no, you will be deemed to have automatically waived your right to log out]

……

[System logout channel is closed]

The system's voice full of urgency was out of place in the leisurely summer evening around him, and Qi Yan leaned back on the leather seat and said casually: "079, there is a bug in the scene setting here." ”

079: "Huh? What a bug. ”

Qi Yan pointed to the colorful lantern hanging on the big iron gate: "It says "Happy Summer Vacation", which means that it is still summer vacation, right?" But what about the children who come back from school with their school bags? It's too miserable to go to school during the summer vacation. ”

079: "It seems that the system is not collecting enough data from the real world, and the simulation is distorted. ”

Qi Yan shrugged: "It can also be understood that the parents of the children are too rolly, and they also signed up for cram schools in the summer." ”

The two laughed at the same time, and then fell silent again.

"I think, now Xiao Nian has left the dungeon." Qi Zhen rolled up the window glass again.

"Hmm."

"079, can you tell me that secret?" Qi Yan looked at the windowpane illuminated by the streetlamp, with his reflection on it.

079 didn't sell it anymore, and said straight to the point: "In the world of the "Rules Illustrated Book", the dungeon is not closed between the dungeons, and each dungeon has an entrance to the main system. ”

"I've found the entrance to this dungeon."

079 is an important NPC that moves between dungeons, and of course knows better than anyone how dungeons and the main system are constructed.

Qi Jiu: "The coordinates are at 501 of the apartment building, right?" ”

He had already had a hunch that that room was the place where he saw the memory of his subconscious, and it was also the place where the 079 character was summoned, and there must be something special about it.

079: "Yes, the answer is pretty obvious. ”

But at the moment, Qi Ji is more concerned about another thing-

"From this entrance to the main system, can we go to your database and steal your data?" With a half-joking expression, Qi Yan said this plan that he had been thinking about for a long time.

That's why he's here.

"079, are you willing to go with me to steal your persona data? Nineteen years ago today. Qi Yan looked at his mirror image for a moment, and seriously extended an invitation.

079 smiled: "Qi Jiu, it's because of this that you chose to go back to nineteen years ago, didn't you?" ”

Chapter 236: The Data Thief (6)

Qi Yan smiled by default: "When did you start guessing my plan?" ”

There is no doubt that 079 has long been aware of Qi Jiu's plan in his heart, and he does not show shock or confusion, on the contrary, he seems to have been waiting for Qi Jiu to invite him, as if waiting for his prey to "throw himself into the net".

079: "From the time you offered to make a deal with me, you had to go back nineteen years. ”

But earlier, 079 already had a premonition in his heart, after all, the number "nineteen" was too coincidental, and the coincidence was special.

Qi Jiu: "Do you know that you are part of my plan?" ”

079: "I know, so do you, part of my plan. ”

Qi Jiu: "Yes, after all, this is our plan. ”

Although the two sides did not discuss it beforehand, it seemed that they had completely thought of going together.

"It's a pleasure to work with."

At this moment, the uncle who sold mung bean ice went around and rode back to the old apartment, and Qi Yan poked his head out of the car and called the other party: "Hello, please bring me a popsicle." ”

"Okay," the uncle drove towards Qi Yan with a foam box, and when he took out the popsicle and handed it to Qi Yan with his hands and feet, he seemed to recognize that the other party had bought his own popsicle not long ago, and smiled enthusiastically, "My popsicle is really real, no saccharin pigment is added, and my daughter-in-law's craftsmanship is good, so there are a lot of repeat customers, who knows who eats it." ”

Qi Yan also smiled: "Yes, the mung bean ice tastes very good, so I want to give my little nephew a taste." ”

Of course, he said this to the guy who shared his body with him.

"Then you have to hurry, the taste of the ice will be greatly reduced as soon as it melts." The uncle admonished while collecting the money.

Qi Jiu: "Well, I know. ”

"You often run around here, right? Next time, if your little nephew is also there, I'll treat the child to ice. "The uncle is very enthusiastic, and he must also be a resident who lives nearby, and usually does neighborhood business.

"Thank you."

After the uncle left, 079 asked Qi Jiu: "Aren't you afraid of having a stomach?" ”

Qi Jiu: "It's okay, I want to celebrate our new collaboration. ”

"If it weren't for the important task later, I would have liked to buy a beer at a nearby store." Qi Yan joked.

079 sighed softly: "Qi Ji, in the rules of your human world, you can't drive after drinking. ”

"Little nephew, thank you for the reminder."

Qi Yan turned off the air conditioner in the car, rolled down all the windows, and the summer wind blew into the car, carrying the smoke of the barbecue stand, and the lively voices of people also came.

I remember that summer nights are like this, hot and baked, both in terms of temperature and taste.

Qi Ji knows very well that even though he grew up in the real world, he is always used to looking at everything in the world as a bystander, including what happened around him and even his own affairs.

It's as if everything has nothing to do with him, he has always been a character who stays out of things, because he is withdrawn, so objective.

But in this way, what is the difference between himself and this high-ranking guy?

He had always been condescending to see what was happening in the copy, and calm compassion was arrogance in itself.

Qi Zhen finally realized that the resemblance between him and him was not just this face, this body, but something deeper, which also achieved the tacit understanding between them that did not need to be spoken.

"What are you thinking?" 079 asked softly.

Qi Jiu: "I'm thinking... I ate the popsicle myself, but I shared it with someone, and it was a strange feeling. ”

079: "Is there anything else that feels like it?" ”

Qi Zhen feigned distress and said, "Do you need to say it?" ”

079: "Of course. ”

Qi Yan curled the corners of his lips: "I like it very much." ”

079 was also deliberately silent for a while: "Qi Jiu, so am I." ”

He laughed too.

"You say, is our tacit understanding based on data replication? After all, we've never lived together, or even in completely different worlds, and if it weren't for the data, this level of similarity would have been miraculous. Qi Yan carefully wiped off the syrup remaining on his fingers with a wet paper towel and said thoughtfully.

He knew that the touch brought by his every movement could be sensed by the guy in his body simultaneously.

This makes everything new and unique.

"I don't know, but it doesn't seem to matter," 079 replied, "I'm created from humans, just as humans are genetically influenced, and you and I are inevitably influenced by data, but that's just the beginning." ”

Qi Zhen smiled: "Yes, it's really not important, the important thing is that we will get your personality data in the near future and create this 'beginning'." ”

079: "Nineteen years ago, the system was not invaded by bugs, and my persona data was not polluted or damaged, which was the most complete time. ”

Therefore, this "self-stealing" plan must be arranged in the timeline nineteen years ago, which is the beginning of the cycle.

Qi Yan joked: "I didn't expect that we created me together." ”

Once the gears start turning, there seems to be no way to stop the cycle.

Because he needs to come into this world, 079 also needs his appearance, no doubt.

"Qi Zhen, in the human world, is your existence equivalent to our common child?" 079 joked in an understatement.

Qi Ji choked: "Little nephew, don't take advantage of me." ”

Both laughed.

079: "Just as we did nineteen years ago, the coordinate entrance to the main system must be opened at the right time, the right time, which is the time of the date change, which is midnight. ”

Qi Yan glanced at the time, it was not yet half past seven in the evening, and he had to wait for this night.

Before that, he also needs to let Mrs. Xu and her family fall into a deep sleep after tonight's reunion dinner to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by breaking into the house at night.

Qi Zhen divided the sleeping essential oil given by the witch into small bottles, and then waited quietly.

About half an hour later, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu Minxin came down from the apartment building with black plastic bags, it seemed that the Xu family's dinner had ended, and Mrs. Xu and her daughter-in-law were going downstairs to throw out the garbage.

Qi Yan immediately got out of the car with a small bottle of essential oil, and shouted to Mrs. Xu, who was facing away from him: "Mrs. Xu, I'm sorry, you said you needed my friend's contact information just now, but I forgot about it when I got out of the car." ”

Mrs. Xu was stunned when she turned around, and when she saw Qi Jiu's appearance under the street lamp, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, yes, I was thinking about other things when I got out of the car, and I forgot about it. Recently, there happened to be something at home, and I was restless, so I really needed to get something to calm my nerves to help me sleep, and I thought it would be nice if I could buy it with your friends as soon as possible. ”

Qi Zhen pretended to be very apologetic: "I'm really sorry, I asked you, my friend is on a business trip now, and he may not be able to come back for a while, if you need it now, I can give you some essential oils first." ”

"Ahh How embarrassing is that? Mrs. Xu is not a person who takes advantage of small advantages, and she is busy waving her hand.

Qi Jiu: "You paid a lot of fare just now, and I didn't successfully deliver it to your destination, so it's really embarrassing, it's nothing to share a little essential oil with you." ”

Qi Yan said that he would not charge Mrs. Xu's fare, but just now Mrs. Xu still gave the money to Qi Ji when she got off the bus, and Qi Yan did not shirk at that time, and accepted the fare just to pave the way for the next plan.

"Mom, people and boys are so embarrassed, you can take it." Mrs. Xu Minxin said on the side.

"Then thank you..."Mrs. Xu took the sleeping essential oil handed by Qi Jiu, and invited Qi Jiu, "If you are not busy, go upstairs and sit down?" We are just going to cook glutinous rice balls for supper, and your driver is also strange for working hard, and you have to run a car at night, right? Go upstairs and eat a bowl of glutinous rice balls to replenish some energy. ”

"Then you're welcome."

Qi Yan and Mrs. Xu walked up to the old building again, although the stairwell was still covered with small advertisements, but the apartment building 19 years ago was full of traces of people's lives, and these messy small advertisements and mottled walls also looked everyday and lively.

The door with the posters of the current celebrities was pushed open, and Mrs. Xu's family gathered in the dining room to watch TV.

The ceiling fan overhead whirled and whirled, it was a night of nightmares, but for Mrs. Hui's family, it was just a peaceful and ordinary night.

Qi Ji noticed that room 501 was not lit, and Xu Zhiwei and Xu Zhiwen were not seen at the dining table.
